Fauci was asked why it was optimistic about the development of a coronavirus vaccine when a vaccine for HIV was not developed 40 years since this virus has emerged. The attempts of a vaccine for HIV and a coronavirus vaccine are "really very different," said Fauci.

"When you have a disease in which the natural natural response of the body to infection is insufficient, then it is very difficult for you to get a vaccine. And we know 39 years that I took care of patients Reached AIDS, the body does not make a good immune response against HIV. "

With Coronavirus, "we know that the body is able to make a good answer," he added. "And the reason we know is that we have so many people who frightened the virus and that we succeed. The goal of a vaccine is therefore to do as well, or hopefully, that natural infection - introducing a good answer. "

"I develop vaccines now as director of the 36-year-old institute," said Fuci. "You should never feel confident when you are dealing with something that requires a randomized placebo test to prove it. What I trust is data. I do not trust how to guess or back. But that said that, the reason I feel cautiously optimistic is that when you look at the early response, both in animal data, but especially in the human phase [test] - it induces an answer with antibodies Neutralizers who is at least as good, if not better, than the plasma of convalescent people, who tells me it's a good start. "

Fauci reiterated what he called the "fundamental principles" of coronavirus prevention - "Universal bearing a mask, a physical distancing, avoid crowds, the outside is better than inside, wash your hands", did he declare. "Stay away from bars are a bad news when it comes to spreading. I'm just going to repeat it until I'm exhausted, these things work."

He added, "I believe he strongly, and I will say very clearly, that we do not have to lock completely if we do things well. I think we can open the economy, get job jobs , get people from Doldrum to be locked up. If we do it carefully, carefully and how the guidelines say. "

"Anyone who says we do not live in a divisive time of our country does not pay attention to what is happening in our country," continued withden. "So, what happened ... instead of saying," Uses the principles of public health as a means of opening the country ", it was as if there are public health principles , then there is "open the country" and they are not synergistic with each other. "

"We really need to get this point through that one is not the enemy of the person is a gateway to go to the other," said Fuci. "My name is a realistic. But I'm a cautious optimistic too. AndI think if we can somehow get the unified country to do it together, I do not think we have to go to autumn and winter thinking that we are going to have a catastrophe. We could go to autumn and winter looks good if we do some things. "
